We hope to get out and visit the train Station.  We will be developing our drawing skills and creating maps of journeys.   After half Term We will be learning about our planet and how it fits into the Solar System.  We hope to look at different environments around the world and make some comparisons between them.   

Reading 

The children are making excellent progress with their reading.  Your input at home is really appreciated, please take the time to share books with the children and make a comment in their reading diaries.   Reading with your child 3 times a week will make a huge difference to their reading.
